Additional Functionality

New "Music" App for B&W Formation Speakers

Bowers & Wilkins launches their new "Music" app for Formation products. Available for both Android and iOS users, the app is currently equipped with integrated support for Qobuz, TIDAL, TuneIn, Dash Radio, NTS Radio and SoundCloud.

Bowers & Wilkins also plans to add more subscription services and streaming platforms in the coming months. The app also includes a smart, personalized recommendation feature and select Bowers & Wilkins playlists to simplify and enhance daily musical preferences.

Initially, the new Bowers & Wilkins Music App will be available alongside the already known Bowers & Wilkins Home App, which will continue to be used to set up and install Formation devices. Later this year, Bowers & Wilkins will unify all app functions for the Formation products into the new Music app, so that both setup and streaming are found in a single application.

All other features already offered by the Formation system – AirPlay 2, Bluetooth aptX-HD, Spotify Connect and Roon, and "Works With Alexa" certification, for example – are expected to remain after the merger of the apps.

The Bowers & Wilkins Music App is available now in the iOS Store and in the Google Play Store.
